I'm looking for a replacement grip for my racquet. I'm not too fussy, but I do want some suggestions. My hands don't sweat much. I don't want anything dotted, bumpy, ribbed, etc. Should be soft and comfy - but not spongy. I don't want it to absorb sweat - that just makes it look and feel and smell disgusting. I'd rather wipe off the sweat if I have to. And I don't want to have to think about changing it for atleast a year.

This is my newest try, Tourna Gauze grip tape, I have wrapped this over Yonex-Supergrap.. This feels tacky!! I have not tried playing in this. Did any of you guys try this Gauze one? I know its good for tennis racquets. Any thoughts?

no offence but lil bit look like first aid tape for me, btw hows the performance?

LOL It does look like first aid tape :P.. But the good thing is its easy to wrap and remove self-adhesive. Also lil research on this grip says that it might reduce the blisters on palm, @davlee: not sure about durability just going to try my first game with this in few hours.. Will keep you guys posted!!

Alright Guys! Its been a week since I started using this "Gauze Grip" so far my feel is that: It is Tacky.. Also first few days I had this feeling that it absorbs moisture so well. The only problem is you have to frequently change the grip say 15 days once? If you play daily! Other than that, wrapping it on top of a synthetic grip felt so better than having a towel grip(my preference)..

Here is my grip. It's a Karakal Nano 60. Very thin but very tacky. I have introduced a bulge on the end cap with a few wraps of an old grip underneath the new one to increase the size at the bottom but keeping the usual size at the middle and top. Going over the cone has made a convenient hole to put my thumb. The only drawback is it looks dirty very quickly.
